"The face of the operation is Briatore (referred to exclusively in the film by his colleagues and angry, chanting detractors as "Flavio"), an anthropomorphic radish who spends most of his time at QPR plotting to fire all of the managers."

At press time, Harbaugh had sent Michigan’s athletic department an envelope containing a heavily annotated seating chart, a list of the 63,000 seat views he had found unsatisfactory, and a glowing 70-page report on section 25, row 12, seat 9, which he claimed is “exactly what the great sport of football is all about.”

I looked at the length of your post before noticing that you were a Spartan fan and thought to myself "Oh Lord, so much for us not caring", then I read your post. You are more than welcome to stay here. Most of us appreciate seeing things from a rival's point of view as long as it doesn't come in troll form.

Cedarfest may be one of the dumbest events I have ever witnessed. In my 3 years at MSU, no fewer than 3 legitimate riots broke out in that dilapidated ghetto they had next to campus, with predictable consequences. Of course, whenever someone in authority pointed out that students really should be able to act slightly more mature than drug-addled monkeys on a bender, the student newspaper would rage against the police force and their "draconian" practices. I enjoyed my time at the school, but I am definitely not surprised to see them with a mediocre academic profile and a mouth-breathing alumni base (with exceptions, obviously).

FWIW, I disagree about the stats thing. I think that stuff is interesting in itself, but it also attracts certain types of people to site, which helps to prevent the MGoBoard from looking too much like RCMB.

Actually, while you're here, could you do me a favor and reconcile these two favorite MSU claims: (1) "Walmart Wolverines" aren't entitled to be passionate Michigan fans and (2) Michigan fans are much more arrogant/elitist than MSU fans.

What's more elitist than claiming that the only people entitled to follow a school's football team are those with the resources, abilities, flexibility, etc. to attend that school?

Why post a thread about these idiots? Why even care that they exist? I pay as much attention to their idiocy as I do to Delaware State football. Let's focus on something that's more important like MICHIGAN.

Well I just made my first visit there right now, and after scrolling through the posts I came across one where a man posted that he is married, that he and his wife will never 69 again, and the last time they did was 7 years ago. Lesson learned, never go there again.

whats there to make fun of for brian and mgoblog? he only runs (arguably) the most popular and most successful team specific blog on the internet. they can keep dumping excessive amounts of emoticons over there in derpland for all I care. mgoblog >>>> RCMB

and they have no clue...they're even laughing at Mike Hart and his new "grunt job" at EMU, referring to them as MSU's "little brother". Of course, Mike doesn't "need" that job right now, but he's smart and planning for his future by learning the coaching business from the ground up. Everyone knows what Mike wants to do when playing is completely over (which is probably not quite, yet) and to start out this way actually takes a few brains and dedication. Maybe Sparty fans can learn something from Mike because some day he'll be smacking them down as a head coach somewhere, maybe even in AA.

Saw this on the ESPN B10 Blog... Interview with Jerel Worth, regarding the spartan/wolverine tattoo.

What's the story behind the tattoo?

JW: It was just an idea. We were chilling one day, and I came up with I wanted to get a Spartan tattoo to represent my school, and my dislike for the school down the road. I didn't want it to go down as negative message toward anybody. Just wanted to show the love I had for my school. I told my tattoo artist and he sketched it up, and I enjoyed it.

Where did you have it done?

JW: I had it done in Ann Arbor, at my friend's house. We were all hanging out, relaxing and barbecuing, and we were all getting tattoos. A lot of people came up with their ideas, and that's what I came up with. And there it was.

So you did it in Ann Arbor?

JW: Yeah, unfortunately. That's where my guy was, and he was the best guy to do it. So it's cool.
